Ever ready, always wise,

Aud the Fulton county Banner,
Floating DER a fair domain,
Aids the weekly POrtia Free-Press

The Echo and the Watchman
Join the sweet but loud refrain,
From the hills of grand old Marion,
With her fruit and golden grain.
The Register of old lizard,
And the Banner small but crisp.

1t is thought that the interstate CON-
merce railroad bill Just passed by the
national assembly does away with the free
pass for certain. Newspaper men pay a
good price for all the passes they receive
from railroad companies, and everything
else they are supposed to get "fEee." So
the bill don't disturb the equilibrium of
this scribe.

THE INTERSTATE COMMERCE BILL

The eyes of the whole country are

upon the Interstate Commerce Bill.
This bill presents square issue be-
tween millions of producers and con-
sumers on the one side aud the greedy
railroad cormorants OH the other. The
long aud short Of the long aud. short

company shall charge more dollars for

District Attorney Bill.

1t is an open question whether the
passage of the bill for the election of
three District Attorneys, introduced by
Senator Foley last Tuesday. will prove
to be for the best interests of the peo-
pie, or otherwise.
In the event that the present Judici-
airy law should be repealed, md we
learn that there will be move made in
that direction, it would be ncedl IS
to pass Mr.. Foley's bill, the object Of
which is to make the Office of District
Attorney correspond with the present
Judiciary law.
1t may be urged in favor of the pro-
posed law that the salary will call to
the Office the best talent in the State,
and TINT if three Judges are sufficient
certainly three District Attorneys can
perform the duties OF the Office with
equal satisfaction, but it is question
whether three Judges are sufficient to
meet the requirements of JUS.
tice, and the bill in question is sub
ject to the same objection.
Another objection is that matters of law
frequently come before the B)arl of
County Commissioners which require
the presence of District Attorney, and
if there were but three in the State their
frequent absence from the sessions Of
the various Boards would seriously re-
tard the necessary business Of the sever
nj counties.
These matters should receive dne
consideration b. the law making power
of the State, and We won't su5 sest that
the Legislature make haste SLOWLY in
this matter, rs there seems to be no o.
casion for pushing n matter OF such
Importance to the people.

Hasty WORDS

Half the actual trouble of life would
be saved if people would remember
that silence is goldcn-when they are
irritated, vexed or annoyed. To feel
provoked or exasperated at a trifle,
when the nerves are exhausted, is
perhaps natural to Us in oul imperfect
ly sanctified state. But why put the
annoyance into the shape of speech,
which once uttered Is remembered,
which may burn like blistering
wound, or rankle like a poisoned ar
row? fla child be trying, or q friend
lcaprlcious. or servant unreasonable,
be care ul what you say. Do not
speak while you feel the impulse of
anger, for you will be almost certain
TO say too much, to say more than your
cooler judgment will approve, and to
lspeak in a way that you will regret.
BE silent until the 'sweet by and BY"
when you shall be calm, rested and
iself-controlled. Above all, never write
| a letter when you are in mood of lr.
ritatlon. There is an anger which is
ljustitiable, there are resentments which
are righteous; it is sometimes q duty
to express Indignation. But if you
consider the matter, the occasions for
Iputting such feelings on record arc
comparatively few. They come once
in lite time, perhaps, and to many
fortunate beings they never come at
L all. Upon the whole, people-our
friends and neighbors, and the com
munlty OF which we form q part-are
trying to do the best they can; and in
hours OF good temper and health life
wears bright and sunny aspect.

A story with a Double A otion Mora

a otory Win DOuDI0.A ACtlOn moral
Speaking of regularity of habits, a
well-knowr Nashville lawyer said to-
day that he was reminded Of a certain
Chancellor of the good old days who
prided himself as q model 30 far as
regularity of habits was concerned
One day in this Chancellor's Court a
very important land case was being
heard. An old man named Elm took
the stand, and the exactness with
which he testified as to the boun dary
lines and other details OF the case ex-
cited the Chancellor's attention. After
Elm had concluded his story the Chan
cellor put him through an examina-
tion. Mr.. Elm gave his age as "a
years, said he never used tobacco or
intoxicants in any form. went to bed
at sundown and rose at sunrise, ate his
meals regularly, and was, upon the
whole, very correct man in his habits
OF life, to which he attributed his great
vitality.
Concluding the examination the
Chancellor said to the gentlemen OF
the bar: "You see how regularity in
nauits Vi lie preserves man. You
should remember this az a lesson"
The next witness was also named Elm
and he as we'll as the former showed a
remarkable degree of vitality and
power of mind. He told with detail
what he knew of the case at issue
The Chancellor finally said: "Mr.
Elm, you seem to be q well-preserved
man. How old are your" II am "a
years of age and an older brother o.
the man who has just testified u
"Have you been regular in your hab
its through life?' "Well, l do no,
know as to that" "Do you ever use
intoxicating liquorst" "Well. never
go to bed SOBER" "What time do you
retire7" That depends altogether
| upon the convenience of the occasion
sometimes early and sometimes late. ;
'Do you use tobacco2" II have beer
chewing and smoking for forty years
and could not do without either.' 3,
this time the lawyers were laughing
and the Chancellor remarked: "Well
gentlemen, Elm is tough, whether yo,
find it wet or dry."
